Douglas J. Reilly - RIP

Just heard Douglas Reilly lost his hard fought battle with cancer on December 23. John Jainschigg was kind enough to post a note on Dr. Dobb's. Here is the link:

Here is Doug's link to his primary site:

Most of his blogging links seem to be gone now...kind of a shame. You would think they would be moved and kept as some part of an archive. I think it has been a little over a year since he blogged actively. He is part of the family of software guys that were first gen microcomputer developers - boy things have changed. I definitely shared his passion about Delphi and we both gave in eventually to the .NET framework and Microsoft tools.

RIP Doug hope you can blog in the afterlife!
